Not everyone can have dental implants. For example, certain drugs (steroids) and diseases (uncontrolled diabetes) can lessen your chances of a good outcome. Smokers and drinkers may not get good results either.
Moreover, you must have enough bone for the implants to hold.
Before your dentist can determine if you're a candidate for dental implants, a comprehensive exam must be taken. This will probably involve a dental and medical history, as well as a thorough dental examination.
